Tang Dynasty military camp.

"I wonder what is General Bai's order to come this time?"

King Liang asked tentatively.

Since the battle at Hexi Bianguan, Bai Qi has returned to Chang'an and reported to His Majesty.

Since then, King Liang has never seen Bai Qi.

At this moment, Bai Qi came to the military camp in person. The first reaction of King Liang was His Majesty's intention.

In the world, I'm afraid that only His Majesty can let this peerless killer go to the grassland personally

A hint of awe arose in King Liang's heart.

Facing Bai Qi, even though he was a prince of the Tang Dynasty and was carrying the royal bloodline, he still felt trembling.

This has nothing to do with identity, status and lineage.

It's entirely from biological instinct.

It was like a cattle and sheep on the grassland, seeing lions and tigers.

Heartfelt fear.

Bai Qi looked at King Liang and said, "Tell Your Majesty the will!"

As soon as Bai Qi finished speaking, King Liang immediately stood up and knelt on one knee on the ground, preparing to accept His Majesty's order.

The imperial edict of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was equivalent to the emperor's arrival in person. Even if King Liang was the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he would kneel down to receive the imperial edict.

This is the rule!

Always remind the ministers of something different!

"Your Majesty's order to ask King Liang Li Zhen to lead a large army to evacuate the Turks and return to Chang'an."

The King of Liang respectfully answered the order and said, "I am Li Zhen, receive the order!"

Bai Qi finished speaking and was about to turn around and leave.

For Bai Qi, he came here to convey His Majesty's will.

Now that the will has been conveyed, Bai Qi naturally left without hesitation!

"General Bai"

King Liang stood up and couldn't help but say, "If this king evacuates, what should the Turks counterattack?"

What King Liang is worried about is not without reason.

King Liang led a large army to go deep into the grassland and massacred the Turks. Even the top ten tribes on the grassland were pacified by King Liang.

Such behavior is definitely a bloody hatred!

At this time, if the King of Liang withdraws his troops and gives the Turks time to breathe, there will be future troubles.

"King Liang is too worried!"

Bai Qi stopped and turned to look at King Liang: "After leaving the military camp, I will go to the Turkic royal court in person."

After Bai Qi said this, he turned around and left.

Only King Liang, who was shocked, was left.

Go to the Turkic royal court in person?

King Liang took a deep breath.

He now has some sympathy for the Turkic King

With Bai Qi, the killing god, if the Turkic royal court dares to make any changes

The bloody scene in Hexi Bianguan may reappear.

However, this time, Bai Qi will not be the 300,000 Turkic cavalry, but the entire Turkic royal court.

Turkic royal court.

The Turkic master stood up, looked out of the hall, and slowly spoke, "I have made a deal with the Emperor of Tang."

As soon as the Turkic National Master finished speaking, the Turkic King frowned slightly.

"trade?"

“What deal?”

The Turkic King frowned.

He did not expect that the Turkic national siege would encounter the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty this time.

"The Emperor of Tang Dynasty gave me two choices."

When the Turkic master said this, he paused for a moment and continued, "Life or death!"

The Turkic national master looked at the Turkic king and told the Emperor of Tang Dynasty about the colonization plan.

When the Turkic King heard this, his face changed.

"National Master, you are confused!"

"How can I agree to this condition?"

"If I really follow the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I, Turks, will never have a chance to turn over again in the future!"

"I, Turks, will eventually surrender to the rule of the Tang Dynasty for generations!"

The Turkic king stood up and said.

"Your Majesty, I just said that Emperor of the Tang Dynasty gave me two choices!"

"Life, or die!"

The Turkic national master sighed lightly.

The Turkic King's expression condensed: "Use the strength of the national teacher"

In the eyes of the Turkic King, the national teacher's strength is unfathomable. If he wants to leave, who can stop him?

How could it be threatened by the Emperor of Tang Dynasty?

Upon hearing this, the Turkic master smiled bitterly: "Master, the Tang Empire is unfathomable. If the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty wants to destroy the Turkic country, it will only be in the back of his hands."

"If I refuse, not only will I die."

"The entire Turkic Kingdom will also die because of me!"

"Your Majesty, let me choose, what will you choose?"

When the Turkic King heard the words of the national master, he was immediately silent.

The Turkic King did not suspect that the national master was telling lies.

Since the national teacher said that, it must be the case.

The Tang Empire really had the strength to easily destroy the Turkic Kingdom.

At this time, there were only two ways before the Turkic king.

Birth on kneeling.

Dead while standing.

The Turkic king had no choice!

Royal Palace.

Palace of Eternal Life.

Li Si was considering how to make up for the treasury vacancy.

The main source of treasury money is the Tang Dynasty tax.

The tax revenue of the Tang Dynasty was mainly divided into two types.

Agricultural tax and commercial tax.

Among them, agricultural tax is collected once a year, and Li Si asked the Minister of Revenue to implement tax collection by mu, which is an agricultural tax and will not be effective next year at the earliest.

Therefore, Li Si could only do it on commercial tax.

The commercial taxes of the Tang Dynasty included a lot of taxes.

However, the occurrence of commercial tax is mainly used when merchants trade goods.

In addition, the Tang Dynasty also set a checkpoint tax.

That is, a checkpoint is set up and commodity circulation tax is collected.

Any merchant passing through this level will need to pay a certain amount of tax, such as fish salt.

Level tax is a major component of commercial tax.

Li Si thought of the practices of the pilot free trade zone in later generations.
